Nov 29th
Yesterday, we took a look at five reasons not to be excited about the Green Bay Packers, making the argument that the team has major flaws that may haunt them down the stretch and into the playoffs. That said, we fully expect the Green Bay Packers to make the playoffs. However, this isn’t a team [...]
Packers Getting Healthy, Stronger
Nov 17th
The Green Bay Packers will enter this week’s game with the San Francisco 49ers the healthiest they’ve been since early in the season. The team was buoyed this past week by the return of receiver Jordy Nelson, who had been out since week four. Expected to return from injury this week are linebackers Aaron Kampman [...]
The Allen Barbre Experiment Has Officially Concluded
Nov 14th
It looks like the days of Allen Barbre as a starting right tackle for the Green Bay Packers are officially and mercifully over. Barbre was replaced by recently-resigned veteran Mark Tauscher in the lineup last week against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Unfortunately, Tauscher went down with an injury shortly after halftime of the Bucs game. [...]
Packers Offense Gets Into Some Finger Pointing
Nov 13th
Well, we knew this was coming because it already happened through the media, with both Cullen Jenkins and Charles Woodson calling out Green Bay Packers defensive coordinator Dom Capers. Now, it appears, members of that Packers offense are pointing fingers at each other, in what guard Daryn Colledge terms a “come-to-Jesus meeting.” Maybe that means [...]
Packers’ Offensive Line – Take Six
Nov 10th
It’s no newsflash that the Green Bay Packers haven’t been able to protect quarterback Aaron Rodgers this season, even though you’ll be reading some form of the same story in all of Wisconsin’s local papers this week. Possibly the worst part about the Packers infuriating offensive line, or lack there of, is that they will [...]
Packers Season Goes Into Toilet With Loss to Bucs
Nov 8th
It’s hard to imagine anyone saw this coming, except for Steffen, who predicted the exact result this morning. The Green Bay Packers have done what was almost unthinkable in losing to the previously-winless Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 38-28. The story is the same that it’s been the entire season for the Packers – poor offensive line [...]
Signs Point to Clifton and Tauscher at Tackle
Nov 5th
After Aaron Rodgers was sacked six times against the Minnesota Vikings, it was no surprise to discover that the Green Bay Packers might be considering a change on the offensive line. That change now looks likely, with Mark Tauscher replacing Allen Barbre at right tackle and Chad Clifton replacing rookie T.J. Lang at left tackle. [...]
Two Reasons the Packers Could Go On A Roll
Nov 4th
There certainly is a lot of negative commentary surrounding the Green Bay Packers, right now. We’ve provided quite a bit of it ourselves, and rightfully so, the Packers stunk up the joint on Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings. You’ve got Cullen Jenkins openly questioning Dom Capers’ handling of the defense. There’s the statistical disparity between [...]

Nov 3rd
Here’s some potentially exciting news from Green Bay. It appears a big change on the offensive line may be coming for the Green Bay Packers.

Running back Ahman Green and tackle Mark Tauscher, both recently re-signed by the Green Bay Packers, will be ready to play in time for this Sunday’s rematch against the Minnesota Vikings at Lambeau Field.

That’s right, people. Mark Tauscher, the recently re-signed right tackle coming off a torn ACL, is the Green Bay Packers Knight in Shining Armour.

Although reports on the terms of the contract aren’t available yet, Mark Tauscher is officially a member of the Green Bay Packers again. Tauscher’s signing was announced this morning.

Packers Will Bring Back Mark Tauscher
Oct 7th
One of the easy potential solutions to the Green Bay Packers’ woes along the offensive line seemed to be to bring veteran right tackle Mark Tauscher back – if and when he was fully recovered from the knee injury he suffered last season. Well, that appears to be the case. The Journal Sentinel is reporting [...]
Packers Big Offseason Continues With Duke Preston Signing
Mar 30th
Duke. Duke. Duke. Duke of… Yes, the Green Bay Packers have been busy this offseason. Doing what? We’re not really sure. However, they did make a splash (like the kind a pebble makes in the Pacific) late last week by signing former Buffalo Bills guard/center Duke Preston. Preston signed for two years. This follows Ted [...]
Packers Re-sign Two More, Tauscher on the Outs
Mar 18th
Ed. note: Consider this the post-St. Patrick’s Day hangover edition of Total Packers and please forgive me if I am missing my normal wit. I drowned it in Jameson last night. On the heels of their biggest and stupidest move of the offseason, the Green Bay Packers re-signed two more guys that they don’t really [...]

Vikings vs. Packers: Who Sucked And Who Didn’t
Nov 10th
Every week the Green Bay Packers are starting to look more and more like a team that simply won’t live up to expectations. Yesterday, the Packers lost yet another close game to an inferior opponent, this time, 28-27 to the Minnesota Vikings. The Packers should be better than this. Maybe it’s time to accept that [...]
